Review: NAD plus Technics SL-1210GR plus DENON DL-103R plus Yamaha A-S801 EQUALS WOW - It has been a LONGGG time since I have enjoyed the precious black vinyl. I did the bazillion tedious steps in setting up my brand new Technics SL-1210GR and brand new Denon DL-103R cartridge - plugged turntable into NAD preamp - from there ran 35' 18AWG RCAs to my new Yamaha A-S801 - connected ground ONLY from turntable to NAD - prayed - and then there it was.....WOWEEE...emanating from my vintage 1985 Phase Technology PC-65 fronts was sheer and utter bliss. Very First Album Played: brand new gift from son: Sufjan Stevens Come on feel the Illionoise (awesome album btw) all components were working as engineered and the end result was crystal clear beautiful analog sound. I LOVE NAD. NAD and I were introduced in 1985 and I have loved NAD equipment from then on - extreme engineering and so elegant and pure first class - and I can say also for Yamaha and the Technics - the NUMBER ONE priority of all of these makers is QUALITY of SOUND. The Yamaha is VERY QUIET - the Denon cartridge sounds so FREAKING GOOD - crystal - I AM NOT a turntable / cartridge FREAK like you read so much from Billy Bob and Freddy - yes, setting up a brand new turntable takes time and meticulous attention to detail..BUT it's not rocket science - I am EXTREMELY pleased with the NAD preamp - very quiet and all natural sound reproduction/amplification - RECOMMEND NAD HIGHLY, AS HIGH AS THE STARS ALLOW. LOVE NAD. Now if they would only upgrade the T787 to the T987 and do 13.2 with Atmos - the world awaits.. ;o)
Review: NAD does it well, and on the cheap. - For some reason it sounds muffled on my MMC2 cartridge on a B&O turntable, I even tried with a new old stock MMC1, same issue... however the same two cartridges work fine under the MM setting and sound great. The ONLY thing I do not like about this unit is, there is a power button on the front, it's a momentary connection button, and you press it to give attention to the circuit, and it turns the unit on.. it auto shuts off when there is no signal, but it does not auto power up... So every time you go to use your phono, you have to turn the unit on by pressing this momentary connection button on the front, that should have just been a click on/click off button. As annoying as that is, the unit does sound clean, and putting a scope on it showed virtually no noise what soever, unlike other cheaper units I have tested electronically. So that being said, I am super happy with the unit, its frequency response curve is very broad and the output is super clean with no audible noise. Definitely worth the money, especially if you are building a beginner stereo, and are conscious of build quality, sound clarity and range.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Connecting to denon avr-4308ci. suggested not to use the phono input.  correct?  which input is preferred, cd, aux?**
A: Thanks for your question. Since the 4308 has no phono input you may connect to any input on the receiver. This is a fantastic sounding phono preamp. World Wide Stereo is 37 years old and a very proud AD dealer.

**Q: Where is the pre amp made?**
A: From the bottom of the unit; Designed and engineered in Canada custom manufactured to NAD specifications in China.

**Q: Is it possible to output the pp2 to a computer to transfer m lp to wav files, or would i also have to go through an audio interface (e.g. usb)?**
A: Yes,  They sell an adaptor that converts the RCA to 2.5? the line in on the computer and also fits in the headphone jack. Used it in the line in to upload record collection to youtube sounds great.  Can then use Audacity or a similar program to record in whatever format you want.

**Q: Where can i buy nad pp 2i 24vdc 100ma power supply?**
A: Usually they come when you buy the preamp. To get a separate power supply, I would contact NAD.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great PreAmp For The Money
*by H***L on January 30, 2021*

Excellent Preamp. I’m sure there are better ones out there but this was the price point I had in mind. Well built and stable. Quality connections. Sound was excellent. No noticeable differences to the sound of my favorite vinyl. Highly recommend.
